OP said "fly by wire", meaning there's no non electronic systems to fall back on. If the electronics fail there's no "manual override".

- vvillena 8y agoOf course there's a fallback. If the fly-by-wire system fails, there's another whole fly-by-wire system ready to take over. Usually this is safer than the old redundant hydraulics systems where all the lines ran close together, making them vulnerable to localized impact damage and fire.
